I thought it was just a gorgeous sequel to the show of Liquid Robots, but inadvertently discovered that 7 years later, it was about the growth of Terminator.
1. Hard and soft.
If a precedent about artificial humans was opened in 1984 (not the silly 3PO in Star Wars), then after eye-catching technical robotic monsters chase and kill humans, T2 will not only be technologically advanced Upgrade, more the sublimation of a kind of humanistic spirit, and the full visual effect triggers deeper thinking. This is also the meaning of the science fiction works that I have always admired.
From the perspective of film, due to certain limitations of the audience's professional knowledge, the pure technical theory of hard science fiction cannot be well demonstrated, but the excessive preaching of soft science fiction cannot be realized through science fiction literature alone. The strong sense of picture can just make up for the above two shortcomings.
When too many special effects began to make people feel visual nausea, the director focused on how to make the audience "nausea" effect, and believed that at that time, the shock of this movie was both visual and spiritual. .
2. The
title of Trial T2 is "Judgment Day." As far as I am humble, the spearhead of the trial is more directed at the double-edged nature of technology than the first one. While technology brings a leap to mankind, there is a breath of death lurking. As Sarah Connor in T2 said to Moss, who invented Skynet: "What you create is only destruction." This is also a question that many people have calmed down after science has been religiously admired and fanatical. Only at the level of 91 years, it still stays in the aspect of computer biologicalization, and the subsequent "Escape from the Island of Clone" about cloning, "I am Legend" about viruses, "The Day After Day" about global warming, etc., and even recently The controversy caused by artificial sperm can better show the involvement of science fiction or science fiction disaster movies in this field. It's just that in T2, the final executor of the trial is still humans. After all, they have not completely escaped the colors of heroes and heroes in "Star Wars" and "Alien I/II".
Three, in addition
In addition, the description of Moss’ sudden "surrender" after hearing the story of the future and his destruction of his own years of research results is too simple, while John Connor, the boy who is the savior, and the relationship between him and his mother are very simple. successful.
I can't help but wonder whether the changes in the film are related to the changes in American society and American films.
Looking forward to watching the third part-Robot Uprising tomorrow
